Retracted Article: Overexpression of PCDH8 inhibits proliferation and invasion, and induces apoptosis in papillary thyroid cancer cells
Protocadherin8 (PCDH8), a member of the protocadherin (PCDH) family, is involved in the progression of several types of cancers. However, the expression and biological roles of PCDH8 in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) remain largely unknown. Therefore, in the present study, we detected the express...

Sumario: | Protocadherin8 (PCDH8), a member of the protocadherin (PCDH) family, is involved in the progression of several types of cancers. However, the expression and biological roles of PCDH8 in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) remain largely unknown. Therefore, in the present study, we detected the expression of PCDH8 in human PTC tissues and cell lines, and evaluated its role in PTC cells. Our results demonstrated that PCDH8 was lowly expressed in human PTC tissues and cell lines. In addition, ectopic expression of PCDH8 efficiently inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of PTC cells, as well as prevented the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype in PTC cells. Furthermore, PCDH8 efficiently induced apoptosis and autophagy in PTC cells. Mechanistically, overexpression of PCDH8 significantly prevented the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in PTC cells. Taken together, these findings showed that overexpression of PCDH8 inhibits proliferation and migration/invasion, and induces apoptosis of PTC cells through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. |
